bluetooth headset: music + calls + gps indications - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Hello dears, I get a kaiser and now I'm looking for a BT headset, my problem is I can't find wich special feature (if any) need the BT headset have to choice one and buy it with confidense.
I want to mount it to a motorbike, and I want to be able to receive in the BT headset music + calls + gps voice indications. Investigating some time I found that this can be possible with a software like BTToggle or VoiceRoute or so, to route all the sound of the HTC to the BT headset.
I hope this is true, but now I can't found if we need look some special feature or especifications in the BT HEADSETS available here in the market, and I have not the opportunity of test one and others.
Can someone tell me wich compatibility need I look for in a BT HEADSET for the HTC TYTN II and the custom explained needs above ?
Thank you very much! greetings from Argentina!

i believe u need a bluetooth stereo headset for it to pass music/system sounds through (I bought a samsung h350 for 4.99 and found out it cant do that ). Microsoft Voice commander works nice, it announces texts, calls, reminders, etc.

The Jabra 8040 is both a phone and music/audio Blue Tooth. They aren't too expensive. I am unsure if it will interupt the music for voice navigation prompts. Someone running one would have to let you know. I do know it interupts music for calls.

hi, there is this program ( i cant remember the name), but it allows you to stream all sounds from your phone to your headset, regardless of what kind of bluetooth headset you have. does anyone know what program it is?

Alternative for A2DP?

Hi all,
Couldn't find an answer that suits my problem, so here it is:
I have a Diamond. For a carkit I have the built in nav and bluetooth system that comes with my Ford Mondeo MK4. I use jetware to also get the ringtone to play via the speakers but it would be great if i could also hear sounds like incoming mail, sms or sounds from tomtom.
I did a search on A2DP in the Ford but noone seems to know or able to tell.
How can i get this to work? Do i need A2DP or is there an alternative to hear the sounds from Diamond in my Ford?

Tomtom voice in the BT radio handfree

I've in my car a radio with BT handfree.
Diamond work perfect with him but only for calling.
The connection is forever active but if i start tomtom the voice of this is in the phone and not in the radio.
If i receive a call tomtom don't speak but i can talk using the radio handfree.
I want listen the tomtom not in the phone ! I want listen it in the radio handfree BT.
Is't possible ?
With a nokia ck-7W handsfree-kit it ist the same problem. Use google for "Bluetooth Audio Router", it is a nice small Tool to get all sounds including the tomtom-voice on a bluetooth headset oder handsfree-kit.
I buy it on pocketland.de for ca. 6€ (~9$).

Try Diamond Tweak 0.5, there is an option under Bluetooth setting to use Audio Gateway or something like that think thats pushes the sound over BT. Haven't tested myself either but worth ago instead of buying some crappy accessory
I had the same problem. The problem is that most BT handsets only use limited BT profiles. The TD uses A2DP for most sounds, which is not supported by many handsets.
The answer I found was BTmusic, a little app that works fine. I now have TT directions and warnings coming over my audio system automatically.
BT music ? Sure ?

Yep ... as I say it works for me and I can get TT's directions and warnings fine using my Parrot BT handsfree phone kit.

Help using bluetooth headset with xperia x1

Hi, i have spent some time searching now and since i couldn't find this anywhere i decided to post here, hope someone can help me.
Recently, i bought the official sony playstation 3 bluetooth headset (http://www.us.playstation.com/PS3/Accessories/SCPH-98095) and i have connected it to my xperia x1 through bluetooth (running with itje's touch-it xperience v13.2), the problem is, it only outputs sound for the voice calls, i can't listen to music on it or the normal phone sounds. I know it would be mono sound and not high quality, but i would like to listen to the sound anyway sometimes because its better then leaving it silent.
i have tried in the bluetooth configuration window, clicking in advanced, editing the wireless device profile, thre it was marked hands-free, i clicked refresh and headset appeared, i marked it, then the headset disconnects. when i reconnect it, it auto demarks headset, or it doesnt connect.
I have looked around to see if it was the bluetooth headset problem, but i have not seen anyone else complaining about this or even mentioning it can't play the phone sounds (just some complains about the ps3 sounds not outputing but thats the ps3 fault), and i have also searched to see if it is x1s fault but haven't managed to find an answer as well, so if anyone can plz help i would really appreciate it. Thanks.
thats pretty much because its no BUG.
what u want is a a2dp headset. something tells me that the ps3 headset doesn has this feature. normal headset just route voice calls while a2dp headset route everything.
actually, i didnt use the word bug because i though that might be the case
it has the headset and handsfree profile, not a2dp, but what i wasnt sure if it really needed to have de a2dp profile to output normal sounds, from what i've read it seems it is needed to output stereo high quality sounds, but just sounds with low quality would work for me, thats why im asking, i though the headset profile would be enough for that.
so if i get your message right, unless it has specifically the a2dp profile, there is no other way of making the sound output on the headset, low or high quality?
now i know there might be a way to make it work.
i was listening to some music today using the music player that comes with touchflo 3d, then i pressed the talk button of my bluetooth headset to issue a voice command (with the microsoft voice command program), then the music started playing in my headset while it was waiting for the voice command, once it got the command the music went back to the phone.
Does anyone know any way to make my headset keep playing the sounds, or could at least explain what happens when i press the talk button so i have an idea of where to look to see if find a way?
no one can help me with this? not any tip or a way to select a different output for audio or anything like that?
Also an issue with Audio Gateway
I have tested this issue on two seperate headsets, and so far can get the Xperia to work ONLY as hands free. Seperate phones sperate headsets. The other phone pushed audio thru to the headset whereas the X1 only routes calls.
I also cant find much of this on XDA or anywhere else?
Help?
Regards
i used an ad2p software downloaded from here when i had this issue with my lg ks20. But i havent the gut or im just lazy to try this app on the x1. Maybe u should give that ad2p software a try.

Blutooth and Radio. HELP!!

I am the happy owner of a HTC Topaz.
I ride a motorbike, and have recently bought a bluetooth crash helmet with built in speakers / mic which works a treat for answering and making calls and also for listening to TomTom navigation instructions from my HTC Topaz.
However, I have yet found a solution to allow me to listen to the built in radio via bluetooth. Because HTC requires the plug-in headset to act as an antena the radio doesnt work without it.
However when I plug in the headset, i get instant radio reception but then the sound is routed to the plug-in headset , rather thean the bluetooth speakers.
My logic tells me that there must be some way to use the plug in headset as ONLY an antena allowing the sound to be routed by deafault to the bluetooth headset. Surely this is software driven?
I am not a software Guru, but keen to learn and frustrated that there doesnt seem to be a yet obvious solution to this problem.
Any help would be appreciated.

[Q] using bluetooth headphones/ video

Hey all,
I have HD7 and listen to music when travelling, everything works fine. But just recently I attempted to watch a film and the sound will not play through the Bluetooth headphones, it transfers the sound to the speakers? Anyone know how to change this at all??

Hi, I noticed the same issue on mine and there seems no way to change it.
I will offer a thought on why i think is happening.
On my other Android phones only the Galaxy S actually did a good job of keeping the audio and video in sync when using Bluetooth A2DP. The protocol has buffering in it so for audio its no problem but video can be tricky.
I think they just set it to not use Bluetooth for video audio to save complaints.
shame.

Hello, do you have the possibility to call a contact with the voice ( voice dialing) by the headset like on the HD1 ( and not on the HD2) ?
Thanks

I don't know whether you can activate the voice dialing using purely the headset, but you can use voice dial through a bluetooth headset. Just connect the headset and then hold down the start button until it asks you to speak. It works no matter which app you're using.
It also works without the headset.
bluetooth headphones
Hi,
To Russ, i previously had a Touch Diamond 2 and used these same headphones and it worked perfectly. I actually believe it has something to do with Zune and the player that they use?, it cant recognise that a headset is attached and therefore reverts to the speakers.
With regards to activating the voice dialing, with my bluetooth headphones which are Sony ericsson ones, it has an answer button, which when pressed with no incoming call it activates the voice dialling just as usual saying the same "Call mum".

Thank you, goood news because the HD2's bluetooth stack wasn't able to hear the voice dialing by the blutooth headset , and it only works only by the HD2's microphone.
Thank you

I am not sure if you are still looking for this, but YES, the voice dialing can be activated using the BT Headset. I have a Voyager Pro Plus and it works just fine.
As per the original thread title, I am having the same problem playing video files audio not getting transmitted via my BT Headset, So I called HTC to ask them what was the problem. They confirmed it is a software issue.
He said, it was a WP7 limitation. May be the future updates might get that feature, but right now it SUX. I am not sure how MS managed to F#$% this up. I am really Pissed. I was waiting for ever for this Headset so that I can watch my movies during my commute with the convenience of a BT Headset, now the whole purpose is lost.
